Fallout Puppet Show?

Someone please tell me they got video or know where I can find video of (what I heard) a large number of the fallout puppets dancing before the Omegathon? I wanted to stay for it, but needed to head home for guests. I just hope someone was able to capture the magic (or at least take pictures!).
Thanks.
Thanks.

You could have easily grabbed one from somebody there. Just reached over, plucked one off of someone's hand, and have been lost in the thick Omegathon crowd in no time, the proud owner of your very own puppet.
Nonsense. You don't want someone's sweaty puppet. Besides, the pipe-cleaner puppet was awesome and showed creativity and quick thinking, using only what was at hand at the moment.
Yeah, whatever. I imagined that the pipe-cleaner puppet was some kind of puppet terminator, here to wipe out the scourge of all the normal puppets. Anyway, Joystiq covered our kickin' dance moves ( I was a fan of the sinful puppet orgy ). Check it out here:

That may have been the funniest thing I saw all weekend. He just wouldn't stop....

I was in a group of 6 that started the puppet dancing. A friend had made the devil/angel versions out of pipe cleaners and was holding his hands up, so we all decided to join him. We were all at the Fallout 3 demo, sitting in the same row, so all received the "Intelligence" card, which we could trade in for the puppet.
Once people from the crowd started seeing a group of 6 people with puppets, they kind of flocked to us and the group grew until we had at least 15-20 people. We weren't really trying to do anything organized; someone would do something we all liked, so we would start up too. However, I'm going to take credit for the slow-dancing in pairs bit, because I shouted out "NOW COUPLE OFF"!
I'm glad everyone enjoyed it, because my arms hurt like hell.
Also, if anyone else from the group is on the forums and wants to get together next year with our puppets, leave a comment!
